We booked 2 rooms as we were a family of 5, they were good enough to provide us with connecting rooms and a free extra bed. The rooms were a bit small but they were clean and comfortable.
The hotel is not very close to major tourist sites, but taxi is affordable, and there are closeby buses that can be accessed as well.

Great location! In the heart of the street food and restaurant area, super close to Asia Culture Center. Although in a super busy street, our room was totally silent.

Being the cultural and economic hub of the southeastern part of Korea, Gwangju is worth visiting if you're interested in this country. Also, Gwangju is the best place in Korea that hosts and preserves historical heritages regarding the military/dictatorial government in the last century. You're strongly recommended to visit the former Jeonnam provincial office and Jeon Il Building to witness the history of brave Korean people.

I stayed for two days and I think it was suitable for my needs.
Make sure to go to Sajik Park and to the observatory there, sunset up there was so beautiful! Also there's a café so you can get a take-away coffee to the observatory deck and enjoy it there (or in the café if you prefer that, there are large windows with great views too). When you go in the evening, there are light installations in the park and reflected to the tower.
Make sure to know basic Korean when you go to Gwangju or have a good translator since not everyone speaks English. I speak a bit of Korean so it was okay.
T-Money card works well here and it's easy to get from the airport to the city by subway.
If you are BTS ARMY like me, be sure to check out J-hope art in the Penguin Village and Gwangju Kpop Street!

Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history.
Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history. The people are kind and the food is great as well. Head to Yangrim-dong if you want a plenitude of cafes full of aesthetic. If you’re looking for places to eat, Dongmyeong-dong is where you should be. And Asia Culture Center is great to chill even after the sunset. The best part is that everything listed above is very close to each other. I visited Gwangju about 6 times and I can’t wait for the next. I love this city!

Of all the street shopping areas I have visited so far, I really enjoyed Gwangju's Chungjang-ro. We also visited the May 18 memorial and public cemetery, which had great information about the democratization movement.

We really appreciated the educational opportunities at places such as the 5.18 Archives, Liberty Park and Asian Cultural Center. For Americans.like us, learning.about the U.S. role in the military slaughter of Gwangju citizens in May 1980 was very important. The beauty of the Bamboo Forest and mountains nearby.was.stunning. Subway to the 5.18 Liberty Park (KDJ Convention Center stop) was easy enough to.figure out.

Gwanbju is wonderfull city, but I had litle time to visit because I participate in Fina Masters.
I eat all around between swimming pool and Prince hotel.
It is easy only if you know whwre exactly leed bus lines. I could not find som kind of touristic card with bus lines, I found only card with metro line. After few day and big time to study Gwangju it was easier but stil fatiguant.
There is a lot to like about this property. The price was great and included an excellent Korean-style breakfast. The coffee machine produces a decent Americano but is only available during breakfast hours. There was on-site, off-street parking and free wi-fi.
About three or four blocks away there is a huge shopping and restaurant district that caters to 20-somethings and seems to be the it place to be after dark. it’s at least as big as Myeongdong in Seoul and quite fun to walk through, bright and vibrant, full of youthful energy.
Just a lovely super charming and impeccably clean home. Every detail was thought out with care which made our stay even more comfortable and warm. The location is in a hip area just steps away, but it's just far enough away that it is quiet on the street and inside. The host Eunbee is communicative and super quick to respond to any inquiries. Would definitely book again anytime I come back to Gwangju (incidentally my new favorite city in Korea!).
The Hotel was very easy to get to, close to a lot of amenities. The staff were very friendly and welcoming upon my arrival, greeting me by name and helping to bring my luggage to the room and explaining everything I needed to know. The room was amazing! very clean and spacious with everything I could ever need. I could have happily stayed in the room and never left during my entire stay in Gwangju!
Spacious and well-equipped room. Clean and comfortable. Had a very good night of sleep.
It was a good base to explore Gwangju and surroundings, as it's close to a plethora of local and regional bus stops.
The staff were all very helpful.
Very good breakfast for how affordable the room was.
As of the time of this review, everything seemed new and in amazing working order.
Great location not far from both the airport and main train station in Gwangju. Very spacious room and bathroom. Nice fixtures in the bathroom. Great view from the hotel room window. Clean and modern looking hotel. Friendly staff. Free tea and coffee in the room. Excellent buffet style breakfast!
The room was rather big and as was the bathroom. In the room there is Styler (kind of ironing closet).
The hotel is very well situated with lot of restaurants nearby.
The personal friendly and helpful although the communication is not easy as they don't speak English (or very little).
Very comfortable bed, clean, and quiet room. Also I loved the Korean style breakfast, was super delicious. On the surroundings of the hotel are plenty of cafe and restaurants, you should check them out. Taking aside a few comments, I think this is a very good choice to stay at Gwangju!
The owner was really kind, she made me feel confortable as soon as I arrived. The room was big, I had enough place. The location was also perfect. I didn't know Gwangju so when I booked I thought I might be a little bit far from everything but it is actually well located.
We book 2 people room but the boss upgraded our room to 3 people room! How amazing! The location is really just in the crowded street and so convenient! And after check out we kept our luggage there and took it when we ready to leave Gwangju!
Quite a big room nested along the river. Seems like a hotel for business trips or short getaway. Room was clean and had a computer which was easy for watching Netflix and youtube. Area was about 2 streets away from main shopping area.
The beds were by far the most comfortable beds we had had while traveling in Korea. The roof was wonderful and the breakfast was great. The building is in a great spot that is within walking distance to a lot of great spots.
good hotel and location, but the free breakfast was not so good, not too many options and they didnt even have eggs.
Even though it was free it can be improved.
Everything is very clean! The place is quiet and has a good location. The staff is lovely !!!
I recommend, and I will stay again there if I go back to Gwangju
